Abstract (en)

The device includes a cylinder (36) slidably mounted on a fixed vertical shaft (30) and a plate (28) mounted on the cylinder. The plate is connected with the dispensing unit (16). A rotary cam (68) and cam follower (70) cooperate to impart oscillating motion to the plate upon upward movement of the cylinder along the shaft. A control valve (50) controls the flow of fluid under pressure to the cylinder for selectively displacing the cylinder in opposite directions. When the cylinder is displaced downwardly by the control valve, the cam and cam follower are disengaged, so that the oscillating motion stops.
